Later, these handsets landed in other markets, such as India, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, etc. They even got 5G support. Today, these devices were announced in the European market. And looking at the geography of these models, there is every reason to think OPPO is betting on them and want to make them bestsellers.
